Testing Poisons
There are a number of different
insect poisons on the market. And
there are various combinations of
these so as get the different insects
they are good for in one shot. Some
MQooapappooaOPWMOapnapwr of the ingredients are rather expen
sive.
1 With so many effective poisons
and combinations of these that scien- |
ce has uncovered in recent years, it
; is a bit of confusing at times to know
just which to use for what. But
i Clemson endeavors to keep us all j
straight on this. Each season the
i definite recommendations are made !
up and furnished free to all through j
the county agents and otherwise.
I have heard farmers wonder jf
the poison they used was any good.
Maybe they didn’t use it right, or
used it under very unfavorable con
ditions, and didn’t get the desired
results. You might wonder what
protection the farmer and the njan-
ufacturer alike have in such a case.
Clemson collects samples of all
sorts of poisons and tests them. They
, are not only tested to see if they
have the ingredients claimed in them.
But phey are also tested to see if they
willk^U Che insects they are supposed
! they are,supposed to kill.
• The big thing in this line is the
boll weevil and the poison put ouc
to kill it. Clemson grows cotton at
| all stages at all times in the green
house, and in the field, in season,
to test the poisons on. They put
live weevils on it, poison it as di
rected, put a cage over it and see if
it kills the weevils in the right Ume.
Be it said to the credit of the
i manufacturers, up to this writing all
samples have measured up. This is
i a protection to both the farmer and
manufacturer. The farmer can have
j confidence in the poison he buys. And
the reputable manufacturer is pro
tected against anyone that might be
tempted to put out inferipr materials
and undersell him.
Farm Safety Weex
The week of July 23 has been de
clared National Farm Safety Week.
How appropriate! :
. "With the coming of the machine
: and electrfcity to- the farm, hazards
have been added. But not necessar-
1 ily so, it we understand these new
j gadgets. |
j We all knew w’hich end of the
(inule kicked and avoided exposing
ourselves to it. Both electricity and
, the machine are dangerous at spots
too. We have those to learn. Then
respect them too. and the new things
won’t hurt us.
And around every farm there are
common dangers that should be re
moved. During this week last year
many of the 4-H Club groups over
the state made community surveys
and had accident hazards removed.
And in Colleton county all agencies
conducted an intensive campaign
, through the schools. To start with
tney were, shown a safety film by
County Agents Alford and White.
It pointed out many common dangers
usually overlooked. Then cross
bone placard markers were prepared
and furnished the children to mark
the dangerous things they could find
on their home farms. These varied
all the way from old open wells
there in the tall weeds to jagged
broken glass that might find a bare
foot, arid from a broken round on
a ladder to loose baling wire that
might trip someone.
Farm Safety Week! Yes, let’s check
up and avoid being sorry later on.
Boys Are That Way
Fond recollection takes me back
in June, when blackberries were
ripe. And even a bit before that, in
late May, the wild dewberries start
ed coming in.
We kids used to pick them from
the ditch banks, heage rows,, and
old fields. We would eat the large
iusn ripe ones until they no longer
tasted cood and our mouths were
stained scarlet. Then they accumu
lated faster in our bucket, and soon
we had enough for our mother to
make a “family pie" with.
'leus was baked like any other pie,
although without any sugar or but
ter seasoning in it. It was taken ou‘
of the stove when done and allowed
to c5ol. It was inverted on a large
platter. The bottom crust was on top
then. It was cut out around the
edges, and all of the cooked berries
taken out. They were sweetened
-tiSippaa inj)q.oi[ap b ojui poaaits pue j
pink mass with thick sour cream.
. Then half of this was poured back
into the crust, the circle of crust
that was cut out then put back in,
and the other half of the berries
and cream "poured on that.
It is one of the things that still
tastes like it did when I was a kid.
